“Ding Dong Bell” Nursery Rhyme Lyrics
Ding, dong, bell,
Pussy’s in the well.
Who put her in?
Little Johnny Thin.
Who pulled her out?
Little Tommy Stout.
What a naughty boy was that,
To try to drown poor pussy cat,
Who never did him any harm,
But chased up all the mice in the farmer’s barn

Ding dong bell,
Pussy’s dead in the well
Who let her die?

Who Got her alive?
Little Tommy Thin.
What a bad boy was that
To kill a pussy cat.
Who never did any harm,
But played with the mice in his father’s barn
